Awesome article mate! Think modern western society needs to be reminded of this history considering the period we are heading for! Im writing some similar pieces myself and was great inspiration!

So glad you liked it! It was fun to write and yeah, lots of parallels to today. US debt burden, Bitcoin as a “fixed value instrument", talks of a sovereign wealth fund and crypto reserve. Who knows. I'm not a doomer, but I definitely think it's good to have historical reference points
